Student review [#93004] for Political Science
at University of California Los Angeles - UCLA

When I first arrived at UCLA, I was amazed by the sheer number of student organizations on campus. With hundreds to choose from, it quickly became a core part of the undergraduate experience to apply, get accepted—and sometimes rejected—from different groups. Through the clubs I joined, I built lasting friendships and gained hands-on experience connected to my studies in political science, education, and disability studies. Even at such a large university, these organizations made campus life feel much smaller and more personal.

My one critique, however, is that in some of the more popular majors—like political science—class sizes were often very large, which made it harder to build meaningful connections with professors.
